Description of problem: After reboot, arpwatch does not report anything. The logging (systemctl status arpwatch) reveals that it is only listening to the lo interface. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Name : arpwatch Epoch : 14 Version : 2.1a15 Release : 40.fc27 Arch : x86_64 How reproducible: Clean install of arpwatch Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install arpwatch 2. reboot 3. nothing is reported. Actual results: Check with systemctl status arpwatch - shows that arpwatch is listening to lo interface. Expected results: arpwatch should listen to all the network interfaces (enp4s0) Additional info: systemctl restart arpwatch solves the problem until the next reboot. Furter investigation shows that this can be solved bij adapting the /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/arpwatch.service file The section [Unit] of this file should has After=syslog.target network.target Change this to After=syslog.target network.target network-online.target By adding network-online.target, arpwatch is started after all network interfaces are up and running and will listen to the ethernet interface.
